I found this while looking around at guitar stuff. You don't have to be a fan of music to appreciate the genius/absurdity of these instruments.

Be sure to check out the "nano" guitar. It's only 10 micrometers long and has to be played with a laser.

Wow! And I thought the Daisy Rock guitars were strange!
I like the toilet seat one, though.
I wonder if I could get a bass made like that?! hehe
Thanks for that.

Wow, those are...wow. It's like they gave the luthier a handfull of LSD and said "build a guitar!"

As i recall they didn't use them much because they wouldn't stay in tune.

LOL, I can see why. It looks like the one on the left is a bass and the one to the far right is a 12 string. Pretty cool though, even if impractical.

My favorite is the "Jeweled Jesus" on the page you listed. Kind of like this one only the "Jeweled Jesus" seems more ornate.

The funny thing about both of those is that they're just Stratocasters...with lots of stuff attached.

It would be better if it actually fired, but I suppose that's asking too much.

Heh. The wangcaster ain't bad. Image running your hand up and down those frets!

[Jeremi]

Winner!!!

That reminds me of a viking ship for some reason. "Dragon of the North" or something...

and Jeremi, I think I'd be too afraid to play the "Wangcaster".

Your right and that makes them lose some of their appeal. At a glance they looked like carved bodys.

It's kind of hard to tell for sure. Regardless, it would be like trying to play the side of a cathedral...a bit awkward, at least for me.

Photos can play tricks with perspective but on those two the carved [routed] sections do appear raised like they were added. I can't be sure either.

I would image that a number of them would be awkward.

In the bad for playing category.
